I noticed a post on social media promoting the blown glass works by Okotoks Hot Glass for sale at Spruce It Up Garden Centre so as soon as I was able to arrange a visit - I did. While my husband shopped I shot.
Hope you enjoy the results.
Dealing with light.
Glass can be challenging to photograph at the best of times. Reflections, specular highlights and focussing are all challenges to overcome. On a bright sunny day, these issues can be magnified. But all is not bad!
Dealing with clutter
It can be challenging to shoot something that isn't set up with photographers in mind - busy backgrounds, intrusive signage, oh the things we have to deal with.
Finding the Shot
Deciding on the whole picture or part of the picture can be a dilemma.
Sometimes the shot is in the detail.
And sometimes the shot is in the whole picture.
Whatever way you choose to look at it - it's all good, beauty is, after all, in the eye of beholder.
